Using the AC adaptor
The AC adaptor for use with the R9914 should provide 6
volts DC output at 300mA centre pin negative (Roberts
type PU6-B).
Insert the adaptor plug into the DC socket on the left
side of your radio. Plug the adaptor into a standard 13A
mains socket outlet. Whenever the adaptor is used the
batteries are automatically disconnected.
The AC adaptor should be disconnected from the mains
supply and the radio when not in use.
We would recommend for economy that the R9914
be used via an AC adaptor whenever possible with
battery operation for occasional or stand-by use only.
